You can stack Warriors against the Suns and probably feel good about your lineup. There is enough value out there to grab Curry or Durant. The Bucks are a strong fantasy option to start the season and should do well against the Knicks. Boston and Toronto have favorable matchups, as does Indiana. I can’t figure out Washington to save my life and don’t like them on the road against a good Blazers team.

Reminder: This is just an example lineup built on players discussed in previous slides. I try to pick a balanced lineup, but you may prefer to go heavy on top-end players and hope a low-cost option impressed. Or you may prefer a high-risk, high-reward lineup. Personally, I play multiple lineups depending on the league I enter.

If you have any questions about a certain player or lineup decision, I’m happy to answer on Twitter. Good luck tonight.
